The Incomparable, number 483, October 2019.

Welcome back, everybody to The Incomparable, and you know, a few years ago, Batman won the superhero tournament, and we decided, for some reason, to reward Batman. We would cover all of the Batman.

Okay, I'm going to be specific here.

Batman solo live action feature films.

but what about the Batman serials?

But what about the animated Batman?

But what about Batman versus Superman?

And my answer is no, no to all of those.

However, even though we've covered a lot of Batman movies, there's one live action feature

Batman movie that we failed to cover.

And we're covering it tonight, and it's also a little bit of a

tribute, I suppose, to Adam West and the Batman TV series of the 60s, because did you know

there was a film, yes, the 1966 feature film Batman starring Adam West, Bert Ward, Lee

Merriweather, Caesar Romero, Burgess, Meredith, Frank Gorson,

and all of your favorite villains, all united, the United Underworld.

And so in this episode, we're going to talk about Batman, Adam West, and the rest,

with my wonderful panel. David J. Laura's here. David, like me, uh, spent many, uh, afternoons, I would guess,

in his youth watching the Batman TV series. Hi, David. Holy psychic hosts Batman. Of course.

I mean, how many, how many times do we just sort of line up in the same, yeah, yeah, like,

we're overlapping circles at this point. Yeah. Yeah. It was, it was every day. It was influential for me. So, of course, for you. Like, we're overlapping circles at this point.
